ABRAHAM'S TRIAL.
DIR, Bacon's lecture at the tnde-

DIR. Bacon's Lecture at the indie
pcndeut Church Last Night.
Dr.. Bacon's w ednesday evening lecture
last night was on the moral difficulties
in Abraham's trial.
At the opening of his lecture DR..
Bacon announced that this would be, for
the present, the last OF the series. A
weekly meeting for the critical study OF
the Sunday school lesson Is about to be
organized for Monday evenings; and
rather than unduly multiply meetings,
he would stand aside, and invite all who
had been interested in his lectures to
participate ia the questions and discus
sions o! the proposed Monday evening
meetings.
Turning now to the story Of tbe trial of
Abraham in the Offering OF Isaac, he
Jwelt briefly on the positive religious les
sons Of it, which ought TO he familiar 10
every reader of the Bible. First, that the
dearest trait of human character to the
heart OF God is faith. Second, what faith
is-not as CHRISTIAN people have so often
and sadly mlsconcefved 1t, the holding of
sound doctrines, but a childiike trust In
a heavenly Friend and Father. Third, as
st. James has taught US. the so.called
faitn that does nothing is not to be
counted az faith, but only the dead slmu-
lacrum OF faith. We are JUSTIFIED by faith
only, but not by faith lonely-tide sola,
non solltaria.
These" he said, ''are PLAIN and easy
lessons. But there are some perpleXing
difficulties in the story that are quite as
well entitled to our study. They will be
wildly brought to mind If we recall the
story which ran through the newspapers
four years ago OF the Pocasset murder.
The almost slaughter by Abraham OF his
son Is the object of reverentlal study s
the classic instance of holy faith. the
actual slaughter OF their child, in pursu-
ance, as they believed, of a religious
duty, by a man and his wife in POcasset,
Mass, was the object of universal abhor-
renee. and OF a pursuit by public justice.
The perpetrators escaped the Vallows
only by being committed as criminal and
dangerous lunatics to the custody of an
asylum"
What makes the difference between
the casesi Various answers that had
been proposed tothis question, in answer
10 the perplexity OF believers and the
eXultant cavils of infdels, were taken up
one after another by the lecturer. and
shown to be insufficient. In conclusion,
he emphasized the point that the question
| OF religious sincerity aud inward duty is
! not one into which courts OF justice can
enter. A court of Georgia would be I'M
| der the duty of convicting Abraham and
! Furnishing him. The judgment OF God, in
the great day, may, for aught we know,
| justify the wretched fanatics OF P0casset-
Abraham had no Sermon on the Mount
and NO decalogue to guide him. but pre-
yaiIiug usage of human sacrifice to mis-
lead him. But the very story Of Abraham
put the stamp of the divine disapproyal
! on human sacrifices from that time forth.
| The mistaken conception of the VIII oil
! God with which he j0urneyed in sublime
| faith TO the place of sacrifice was set
right, that none of us thereafter need
suffer under the same awful trial.

Editor Morning Ne,oS: The punishment
inflicted upon the liquor sellers for Vlo-
lating the Sunday law is just. The peo-
pie approve and commend the firmness
OF judges and iuries. II we have law let
1t be enforced or repealed. The same
rule ought to apply to the munlclpal
officers. Laws there are, but how
feeble the effort made to enforce
them. While it is matter
OF congratu!ation that the liquor sellers
are punished, why not punlsa all VIOLA
tors OF the law? Why let the druggists
self liquor on Sunday? Why let them sell
anything except medicine! But many W
them do. The soda water sales are
enormous, hut the Sunday law is violated.
Tobacco, cigars. aud in fact just anything
in the shop can be purchased. The con-
fectiorers do lively business III the mat
ter Of cream, cakes, candy. etc, on sun
day. The railroads reap rich harvest
with their excursion trains, and the DOais
take in the shekels on sunday. But the
Law is violated. The officers OF the law
see it. and, if they do not, they coulo,
And, as officers set for the protection OF
the people by the enforcement OF the law,
they ought to see it if they do
not. Would II not be in order
for the suffering liquor sellers TO rise up
and do a little IN the prosecuting bust
ness? 1t seems so to this scribe. And
equally proper for the poor hunted
gam blers, VINO are not allowed to make
living by their faro banks, to see to 1t that
all other gambling, such as railing, lottery
ticket selling and the like be brought
to close. Would it not be good thing
for the male citizens of the city to deter
mine that all existing laws for city and
county be enforced. Let us try claw

started; let US Ike p it rolling. l am sure
this is the sentiment OF a very large portion
